These days, Song Xiance is with Li Yan and Wang Shuo.Now that Song Xiance already knew his identity, Wang Shuo no longer concealed it, and introduced Song Xiance to his methods of governing the northwest and the current situation in the northwest, focusing on his own governance philosophy, how to implement democracy, and how to implement the legal system.These two items have been done, and Song Xiance said that "there is no luck in the court, and there is no sage in the wilderness" has also been done.Even if Song Xiance is smart, it takes a lot of time and effort to understand these concepts with modern significance.But he still figured it out, understood.These methods are more advanced, more concrete, and more operable than the Datong world in his heart.The world of Datong is no longer a dream in Wang Shuo's place, but is being realized step by step.No wonder Li Yan made up his mind to join Wang Shuo in such a short period of time.Song Xiance also made up his mind to take refuge in Wang Shuo and go to the northwest to build a more idealized world where the people could be happier.The three of them were discussing how to leave with Li Yan, and Emperor Dashun's dictation arrived, and Xuan Song offered advice to enter the palace.Song Xiance smiled, laughing a little miserably, and a little helpless.At that moment, he said miserably: "For His Majesty Dashun to own the world, the old man has exhausted his efforts and tried his best.I don't know how the ancient Bian Que healed people; However, what his heart is, the old man knows.When his illness was still curable, he treated the old man as a stinky shit, ignored it, and didn't smell it; His illness was in the guts, and there was no cure, but he remembered that the old man turned out to be fragrant, late, late" Wang Shuo and Li Yan were silent when they heard the words.Song Xiance entered the palace, and the eunuch led him to the Wenhua Palace.It turned out that after the torture of officials, most of the officials were disappointed and did not bother to go to court.Li Zicheng saw that no one came to bother him, so he also moved his office from the harem to the front.Song Xiance entered the Wenhua Palace, and Liu Zongmin and Niu Jinxing were already there.After performing the salute, Li Zicheng asked the eunuch to move a chair and let Song Xiance sit.Seeing Song Xiance sit down, Li Zicheng said with a smile: "Recently, I have been lying in bed because of the cold, and I feel good today, so I specially recruited three people to ask about the recent things outside." ”Song Xiance said: "Your Majesty was sick before, and he always took the pulse and prescribed the prescription, but now the illness is so bad, why don't you invite the ministers to come and see it" said in his heart, you just pretend, I can't see if you have been sick for a long time, so why don't I read those medical books in vain and listen to Li Zicheng: "It's not a serious illness, there is a doctor in the palace, prescribe a few prescriptions, just eat it, but don't bother the immortal military division." ”Song Xiance said in his heart, you have done almost, of course it's okay.It's good for you, the people of this capital division can be regarded as suffering a great disaster, and now there is a great chaos in the city, so you still have to ask him to order a ban on looting the people first, and do something good for the people.So he said: "The people are suffering, and the punishment from heaven is not far away, and I am willing to ask Your Majesty to issue a decree, resume the duties of a hundred officials, and stop harassing in the city" Li Zicheng pretended to be surprised and asked: "What happened to make the old fairy so uneasy" Song Xiance was angry, and said in his heart, you still have to pretend to have to tell the tragic situation in the capital in the past few days.Li Zicheng pretended to be angry and said: "I have only been sick for a few days, so you will do this" and said to Liu Zongmin: "Spread my will, the hundred officials will be reinstated as directors from tomorrow, and I will get all your troops outside the city, and dare to enter the city without an order, and be guilty of rebellion."
Liu Zongmin got up to give a salute and went down to receive the order.Li Zicheng turned his head and said to Song Xianse: "Although I am sick, I know a little bit about the things outside, and I came out today to deal with this matter."
Rest assured, I will train him if you didn't come just now, he knows his mistake, and I believe that he will not come again. ”After a pause, he skipped this article, and then said, "I still have some military affairs here, please discuss it with the prime minister and the military advisor." ”told Wu Sangui's movements in the past few days, and took out the letter written by Wu Sangui and the letter written by Shunzhi to Wu Sangui for Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance to watch.Song Xiance carefully looked at Wu Sangui's letter, and then looked at the letter written by Na Shunzhi, and couldn't help frowning.Although he decided to go with Wang Shuo, he couldn't ignore the imminent invasion of the alien race.Li Zicheng waited for Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance to read all the letters, and asked Song Xiance: "Military advisor, look at this matter, how to handle it" Song Xiance pondered for a long time, and said: "If it is determined that Wu Sangui wants to vote for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, I am afraid it is not true."
He voted for the Manchu Qing Dynasty and led the Qing army into the customs, which would inevitably end up infamous in the world.If he is willing to bear this infamy, I am afraid that when he is in Guangning, the chips in his hand will be cleared more often, and it will be more appropriate.However, he hesitated at this time, which was not good for him, why should he be so hesitant Judging from his usual disposition, this person is very spicy and decisive, and he is definitely not a hesitant person.He's dragging and waiting for helpers.This helper is undoubtedly the Eight Banners Army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty" Li Zicheng and Niu Jinxing looked at each other and couldn't help nodding.I only heard Song Xiance continue: "As for the letter of the Manchu Emperor, it is simply a snake to add.The more secret things are, the more obscure they should be in the correspondence, and try to mention them as little as possible, which is common sense.But he said so much back and forth, lest we should not know, that it was obviously a deliberate attempt to let us know, that the messenger was deliberately trying to catch us, and that the letter was meant to be given to us. ”Niu Jinxing asked: "Why did he reveal such an important matter to us, he is not afraid that we will learn that Wu Sangui surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and what good is it to eliminate Wu Sangui, then what good is the Manchu Qing" Song Xiance smiled: "This is simple.Wu Sangui is now delaying, and the main force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty has not left Fengtian, which means that the conditions between them have not been negotiated, and they are still bargaining with each other.At this time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty wanted to use us and force Wu Sangui to lower his conditions.Just imagine, once we decide that Wu Sangui has voted for the Manchus, how will we send troops to fight Wu Sangui, which just forces this guy to the Manchu side, and he can't care about what conditions to negotiate with the Manchus. ”Li Zicheng and Niu Jinxing suddenly realized.Li Zicheng said: "In this way, you must not send troops to Shanhaiguan" Niu Jinxing asked Song Xiance again: "What does the military advisor mean" Song Xiance frowned and said: "No matter what, you can't let Wu Sangui go to the Manchu Qing Dynasty."
Our division in Beijing is insufficient, the Manchu cavalry is strong, and we have the help of the Mongolian Eight Banners, even if we concentrate the whole army to contend with it, the victory or defeat is unpredictable.In the future, it will be a strong enemy of our army, and we can also suppress the letter of the Manchu Emperor first and prevent it from leaking.I heard that Guan Ning Tieqi's food and salary were insufficient, so he could send someone to escort the food and salary with him, and Houlu recruited Wu Sangui, as long as he agreed to surrender, it was worth spending more money. ”Li Zicheng asked: "If this guy takes my salary or goes to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, what can I do" Song Xiance said: "This is also a plan to serve the Manchu Qing Dynasty."
We sent food and salary to Wu Sangui with great fanfare, and His Majesty made Wu Sangui a high-ranking official, what would the Manchus think would they trust Wu Sangui This plan to divide and disintegrate. ”Although Li Zicheng felt sorry for money and food, this was also a temporary benefit plan, so he nodded in approval.Niu Jinxing finally said: "It is still necessary to prevent Wu Sangui from surrendering."
After the high-ranking officials are paid, our army should immediately prepare to march to Shanhaiguan, and use both soft and hard measures to achieve miraculous results. ”Song Xiance is smart and changeable, Niu Jinxing is calm and careful, and the cooperation between the two is seamless.If Li Zicheng is a wise man, he can use the strengths of Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance to avoid their respective shortcomings, and he will definitely open up a new era, and the future China will be different.It's a pity that in this troubled era at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there are virtuous ministers but no wise kings.History is destined to develop along its established trajectory
